Nearly 3 in 4 Americans participate in social media, with Facebook being the dominant platform. Younger Americans are more likely to use social media and expect faster responses to requests for emergency assistance posted on social media. During emergencies, about half of Americans would use social media to request help or inform others of their safety. Most agree that emergency responders should monitor social media to quickly aid requests for assistance posted there.

There are also significant gender gaps, with men expressing more interest than women.

Web Results - 2011 King County Voter Opinion Survey

Research Findings
Excerpt, Web related findings
October 30, 2011
2. 2
Interest in Election Apps
King County Elections wishes to increase and improve the use of new technology and social media
tools to optimize its communications of voting information and news about elections. Pursuant to this
objective, the survey asked voters who own smart phones to give their opinions about the usefulness
of five specific applications.
Among all voters surveyed, 45% said that they have smart phones or mobile devices that use
apps. As expected, smart phone owners were likely to be younger (under age 45), college
educated and high income earners. They were more likely to prefer online voting in the future,
and said they had previously visited the KCE website.
These respondents were asked to evaluate the usefulness of proposed Elections apps (displayed
in the following slide). Overall results were very positive, with a majority of respondents in
agreement that all five applications seemed at least somewhat useful.
Between 54% and 76% evaluated the group of 5 apps as somewhat/very useful. The app that gathered the
largest share of very useful/somewhat useful ratings (76%) was election night returns and updated results.
Online tracking for ballot packets gathered the smallest share of positive ratings (54%), but was still
perceived as a useful app by more than half the smart phone users.
Opinion about the apps was unequivocal, evidenced by the fact that don’t know response was 2% or less for
only 2 of the 5 items asked about.
